• APC Comment: A name of uncertain application, listed in synonymy of Rumohra adiantiformis (G.Forst.) Ching by M.D.Tindale, Fl. New South Wales 208: 2-7 (1961). The related name Aspidium capense (L.f.) Sw. has been misapplied to Lastreopsis calantha (Endl.) Tindale and Polystichum whiteleggei Watts on NI and LHI respectively, however, Tindale’s concept of Rumohra adiantiformis is restricted to Australian mainland populations only.
